This isn’t surprising. The humanistic culture of the government schools is so powerful that it overwhelms even the relatively strong Mormon culture. Imagine what it is doing to the average “happy-clappy” Evangelical teen and young adult.
Come on. Getting married at 24 is a bad thing? I don’t think so for one minute. I was 28 and definitely glad I didn’t get married at 20. People should not get married before finishing college and getting a job for sure. How awful to advocate getting married at 20.....I guess we do need our welfare folks and McDonald’s workers.......it is insane to marry at 20.....sorry but it is.
My niece was 19 and her husband had just turned 21. He is a carpenter and she is going to a local college to become a teacher. They own their own home and just had their first baby a few weeks ago. Virgins when they got married so earlier was better for them. They’re doing great! I think your broad brush is a bit ridiculous.
I couldn’t even afford to move out of my mother’s house at 20...
“I guess we do need our welfare folks and McDonald’s workers..”
Might this unenlightened one ask in which alternative universe welfare folks marry? Same for McDonalds workers?
“it is insane to marry at 20.....sorry but it is.”
Oh nonsense, I married at 18, my son married at 18, we are both fine.
It depends on the people and the circumstances and a lot of other factors. Not just the age.
Neither of us have ever worked at a McDonalds, either.
